      I’ve added another author to my list of favorites – P. G. Wodehouse.  Dani has long been a Wodehouse fan, and is building quite a large collection of his books.  I read one title from Wodehouse’s Jeeves and Wooster series last year, and I enjoyed it immensely.  Dani graciously allowed me to read…

     Please continue to pray for little Caroline Fletcher.  I’ve been asked for updates.  Your best source for updates would be at her Dad’s blog.  (Go ahead and bookmark it, because you’ll want to keep reading him even after Caroline is well.)       So, check Fletch’s site for updates if you’d like, but DO keep…

     I was.  My friend, Lisa, a Compassion International advocate, reminded us that Compassion is already working in Haiti with children and families through their church-related programs.  They are already there.  They know, first hand, the needs of the people because they KNOW they people!  I can think of no better way to help than…

     Though February may be a dreary, mid-winter month, it also brings lots of opportunities for celebration!  This year, in my home, we are going to observe several February holidays.  Most of our celebrations will be very low key and will center, for the most part, around a good book or two.  (Or three, or…
